Totally getting a big bang out of teir status matching the Las Vegas properties membership rewards to that of my already robust Bonvoy, IHG, Hilton, Hyatt, Wyndham, Radisson profiles. I've elevated to platinum or diamond reciprocate levels in just 3 days on all and collected a handful of local casino cards with levels for free meals and trips. I didn't spend but 500 of my cash in random play. $wasn't the driver.

Also... really important to also create profiles on any of the global owner site

Are there any entreprenuers in this group?

How bad is it for a junior to push back against a completely psychotic mid level? I don’t know how this mid level hasn’t been fired because they are even rude and bossy to partners and are a nightmare for juniors. I’ve decided enough is enough and am now pushing back against their arbitrary deadlines and other insane and unnecessary asks. I rarely work with this person and have good reviews. Am I asking for trouble?

It’s looking bleak, but are any south florida firms hiring juniors for com lit positions?

Final day at current company tomorrow and I have 100k+ AMEX points I need to use before they disappear forever. How should I redeem them to get the most bang for my buck?

Hi fellow fish need some advice.

I'm planning a wedding and wondering if I should apply for new credit cards to maximize on points. If so, wondering what your recommendations are and or if there are new cards out there I haven't heard of yet. For context I probably have another 20k+ in expenses to pay still and my current cards are:

CSP
Marriott Bonvoy Boundless
Citi double cash
Random card (used to be uber)

My DashPass via my CSP is expiring at end of the month. Does anyone know if I can get another year of it by adding another eligible Chase card on the same account??

On a credit file, do multiple credit cards from the same issue count as multiple accounts or is that issuer counted as a single account regardless of how many cards

Is there a United status challenge?

Why does Newark close tsa pre lanes? Terrible

What do folks think about the Uber credit card? I already have CSR and citi double cash. Worth getting it?

Which CC is better for sign-up bonus - Citi Premier 80K points or Chase Aer Lingus/Iberia 100K Avios points?

I churn somewhat regularly and am under 5/24 by 1. I think Citi's points are more valuable but maybe I should knock out another Chase card before I'm at 5/24 again, even though Avios isn't as versatile?

What other cards to add to my collection? I have AmEx Platinum and Chase Sapphire Reserve. Fly Delta so AmEx is handy for lounges. Use Sapphire for dining/travel. Should I add Chase Freedom Unlimited?

Every time I try to use Hertz points abroad the site says that location doesn't take them. Can I call and use them or am I just SOL using them anywhere internationally?

Amex platinum vs CSR??

My fiancé and I both have the CSR card and Freedom Unlimited combo and love them. We are thinking of adding another card and we were considering the Amex Platinum (to diversity transfer partners) or likely a United card for lounge access since we live in Chicago.

Does anyone else have both CSR and Amex Platinum? Would you recommend?

Amex Platinum or Chase Sapphire?

Having trouble opening a new bank acc (eg Marcus by GS, Ally) as I‘ve only been in US for a few months and have no credit history. Any international fish have tips to circumvent?

Best Hyatt in Hawaii (ideally Kona or Maui)?

Has anyone ever had any success in getting a delta base economy fare refunded? Am no longer going on a trip and wondering if I can get those points back that I used to cover the fare

Just got an offer to upgrade my Amex Gold to Platinum with a 100k point bonus (spend $6k in 6 months). Is this worth it to upgrade to platinum? Would you do it
